A judge has refused bribe for hire Pam Bondi’s request to criminally charge former CNN anchor Don Lemon for no reason and now she’s angry. Pam Bondi should be in jail for accepting illegal bribes and for covering up many crimes.

What it feels like to live in America and believe ALL people should have basic human rights.

"The UN Charter, adopted by the Senate 89-2 in 1945, giving it also the force of U.S. law, bans the US from issuing the 'threat or use of force against the territorial integrity' of a nonoffending member state...This isn’t international law, MAGA types, it’s US law." www.wsj.com/opinion/gree...

DHS says they have a “list” of around 1,400 people to round up in what they’re calling “Operation Catch of the Day” — a completely disgusting and inhumane name for their terror campaign in our state.

Jack Smith: Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that Trump engaged in criminal activity. If asked whether to prosecute a former president based on the same facts today, I would do so regardless of whether they were a Democrat or a Republican. No one should be above the law

Incredible reporting here..... Musk should be shunned, forever, by civilized and decent people here and around the world. Deeply sick and evil man. Truly. Bond villain stuff.

7 democrats made this bill pass. If they all voted “no” it would’ve failed 213-214.

Trump's buddies now control TikTok in the U.S. www.cnn.com/2026/01/22/t...

It appears that juries are no more likely to believe Kristi Noem's lying bullshit than they are to believe Pam Bondi's lying bullshit. Nice try, little Greg Bovino. news.wttw.com/2026/01/22/c...

That’s a weird way to say “blew out all the veins on his right hand so now he has to use the left for the injections that we refuse to admit he’s getting”

206 House Democrats voted to shut down DHS today. 7 Democrats voted to fund it. That’s like 3% of democrats. Easily fixable. No need to abandon the party over 3%. However, 100% of ICE sucks. Abolish ICE.

A government that uses a 5‑year‑old child as bait isn’t enforcing the law — it’s betraying it. This is abject cruelty wielded as policy and a deliberate assault on the values that make a democracy worth defending.

This doesn’t stop us in Minnesota. Why would you think that ICE would? We may be scared from time to time, but we will not give in. We will prevail. #iceoutmn #iceout

A Manhattan judge has ruled Republican Rep. Nicole Malliotakis' district is unconstitutional and should be redrawn — potentially giving Democrats a coveted pickup opportunity in the tightly contested House. www.politico.com/news/2026/01...

Dear Mr. Smith, I’m going to ask you a bunch of nonsensical questions, but you are not allowed to answer any of them because I’m going to keep answering them myself with lies. Not so sincerely, Crazy lady Representative

By design! Trump is in office to solve the problems of autocrats. Wrecking America so thoroughly it will take generations to recover and clearing way for dedollarization is part of this.

For those of you outside of Minnesota who want to help the people in Minnesota. (Thank you.) (Call your members of congress tonight, please.) www.standwithminnesota.com naomikritzer.com/2026/01/21/h...

Amen.

Seriously, @people.com has been meeting the moment better than 90% of publications with direct reporting and crystal clear headlines. This is a good way for the low-information voters who are usually detached from the news cycle to get turned around.

I like the "of course" here because he's absolutely right that this is an incredibly easy call for congressional Democrats to make.

This is 100% FALSE. Immigration judges do NOT play any role in issuing administrative warrants. They are generated and signed by ICE officers themselves. ICE’s own training materials say they can’t be used for a search of a home! Here’s a blank warrant form. Note who signs it.

There is no level to which these heartless shit-for-brains won’t stoop to inflict cruelty and suffering.

I'll say yet again: Trump & his party do something virtually every day that constitutes a more violent & alarming suppression of speech than anything that happened during the entire alleged tyranny of woke. Every day. Yet the entire Free Spech army has just vanished into mist.

“Look: Rome wasn’t burned in a day.”

PSA: You do not, under any circumstances, fund the Gestapo

right now the floor for me is abolish ICE and put every agent on trial and the average elected democrat is like what if we told them to cut it out

This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars

Re ICE actrocities in MN, I’ve already said that lately I feel consistently angrier than I’ve ever felt in my long life. But I also feel absolutely heartsick. That poor little 5-year old baby kidnapped, imagining how scared he was… I know many of you feel the same. Love and solidarity to you.

All the pundits who were outraged at kids missing school in the early days of the COVID pandemic are welcome to speak up ANY TIME NOW

"Terrible things are happening outside ... poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart; men, women and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared." — Anne Frank (Jan 13, 1943)

if you don’t think you can campaign on abolishing this agency and prosecuting the people involved - if you don’t think you’re able to make that case using this video and other like it - get the fuck out of politics

This comes just after the president publicly demanded that ICE should start showing the public how terrible the people are who they're grabbing and arresting. In this case, his name is Liam. He's five years old. www.kare11.com/article/news...

I had a thought tonight that will actually take all this rage and direct it in a positive direction: I am going to look up the legislation that established the 9/11 victims compensation fund and use it as a model to begin drafting a legislation suggestion for

Jonathan Ross intentionally put a gun to her head and pulled the trigger. That’s what happened. He deserves the death penalty and instead he’ll be protected by our government.

So the shot he took through the window as the car was moving down the street.

Clergy are raising holy hell about ICE

Let the picture of the little five year old boy standing facing the car and the old man being dragged out of his house with no shirt on, let those images burn into your brain. We don’t have to be this country. We don’t have to live this way. Donald Trump was a choice, Republican voters made for us.

If you’re a grown ass man in full tactical gear asking a child to show you ID or proof of citizenship you failed at life. Utterly & completely failed. Loser.

1. After months of denials, the Trump administration has admitted that DOGE staff misused Social Security data. A DOGE staffer signed a deal to share the data with a “political advocacy group” seeking to “overturn election results" The identity of the staffer is not disclosed but there are clues

Another friend put it to me like this: "ICE has made the classic Nazi mistake. They've invaded a winter people in the winter."

I have been actively involved in protest movements for 24 years. I have never seen anything approaching this scale. Minneapolis is not accepting what's happening here. ICE fucking murdered a woman for participating in this, and all that did is bring out more people, from more walks of life.

“I've been here 24 hours, but already with what I've seen, well, I genuinely believe we're going to win.” Important thread:

I don't understand how the occupation of Minneapolis is not a full-blown, all-hands-on-deck national talking point, as it surely would be if a Democrat were in the White House and federal troops were in a standoff in, I don't know, some random conservative compound in Idaho

a heavily armed paramilitary force with legal immunity is occupying a city and going door to door kidnapping non-white adults and children in furtherance of an explicitly white nationalist political project
